Sally Skirt

It's been hot here in the Pacific Northwest. 

Because we're still in Phase 1 of house arrest ahem I mean quarantine, we can't head to the pool and shouldn't head to the river. We're trying our hardest to follow the Governor's orders, so the most our kids have gotten is sprinklers in the back yard. 

Oh what we wouldn't give to head to the pool!

This girl wears a lot of pants, regardless of the heat. And as you can see in the pictures below, she wears long sleeves to go with the pants. She needed something lighter weight to wear and although she has a love for maxi skirts but was feeling skeptical about the Sally from 5 out of 4. 

I'm not sure if it was the fabric, she's more of a solids, flowers or animal print kind of a girl. 

But, Tie Dye is Back! 

Really, did it ever leave? (I did spent my teen years in the 90's friends.)

I convinced her to try out the Sally in this Rainbow Pointelle Tie Dye from Mily Mae Fabric. The Pointelle has such a great structure and yet allows her to move. 

After wearing Sally around the house while she waited for me to get ready to take her pictures, she fell in love with Sally. 

I'd have to agree with her. The fit is great, the knot adds a fun detail, and POCKETS!

 

Overall, she rates the Sally as a "I want to fill my closet with Sally's".

Sally is on sale this weekend (6/27/20-6/28/20) for $5 HERE.

Don't forget you can get the Women's Sally on sale for $5 too!
